Thomas Jefferson On The Dangers Of Reading

"Shall I tell you a little secret? But I have to warn you, you won't like it." No one likes spoilers, therefore, I present this to you. "Is it a book filled with spoilers or a book specifically about spoilers?" Read between the lines, that is what you do when you are eager to find out. To figure out a secret, to interpret and keep note of what there is to come. "It is kind of like that, but I would rather refer to it as a compilation or a series." "Or an outline, a note, reminder for what'll end up happening, whatever feels right to you." A story that has only one plot, universe, and meaning is not how you would describe this one. Spoiler though, you'll never be satisfied. /Extra/ "One more thing... None of this is real. Unless you know what exactly is going on."

Three rejections. Three shattered dreams. That was Layla’s reality, all because she was different—a half-shifter in a world obsessed with purity. Ostracized, shunned, and finally sold off like a pawn to the most feared ruler alive—the Lycan King. He was ruthless, a king with a graveyard of brides, each one a ghostly reminder of a fate worse than death. Layla loathed him. Hated the way his gaze cold and fathomless, held no warmth for her. Hated how his touch, both thrilling and terrifying, sent an uninvited chill down her spine. --- “I hate you!” I screamed, hands clenched so tight my knuckles ached. He sighed, a smirk curling at the edge of his lips, his tone mocking as he closed his book with a deliberate snap. “Stressed, are we?” he asked, strolling toward me, each step reminding me exactly who held the power here. “Lucky for you,” he drawled, rolling up his sleeves as he stopped just inches away, “I know exactly 70 ways to ease those nerves.” His fingers brushed my cheek, a touch that seemed to burn into my skin. “The first… a hug.” His voice dropped to a rough whisper as he leaned in, breath hot against my ear. “And the rest... well, that's 69? what do you say about that?" I swallowed hard, my heart thudding wildly as he tilted his head, waiting for me to react, that insufferable smirk still in place. “What’s the matter, darling?” he murmured, a taunt lingering in his gaze. --- A Dangerous Obsession Can she resist the pull, or will she dance into the flames of her own destruction? A dark dive into obsession, raw need, and the razor’s edge between desire and devastation. --- LYCAN KING CASSIAN I will tear her apart piece by piece, feeding the wildfire that grips her with each shuddered breath. Like air to flame, I’ll claim every inch, drawing heat from her skin until it sinks into her bones. Her pulse will race under my hands, her breaths shallow, pleading. Her eyes may scream, but her lips will still murmur my name. That first taste of fear will only feed something deeper—a need that burns through her veins, molten and fierce. And just when she’s too far gone to turn back, I’ll twist the knife, giving her the pain she’s learned to crave. She’ll be the moth to my flame, helpless against the very thing that will consume her.

After a fateful accident, Kazuki's life is shattered when he begins to suspect he has become a Ghoul, a creature that feeds on human flesh. As he delves deeper into the shadowy world of Ghouls, Poachers and Awakened, he learns something worse. The truth is—he's a Ghoul-Devourer, a rare being that must consume other Ghouls to survive. To survive the horrors of this new life, he must hunt, kill, and consume his way to the top of the food chain. But as his humanity slips away, will he succumb to the monster he fears or become the ultimate predator? Also, the strongest Ghoul of the past era has taken him as a disciple. *** What to expect: - Unique Power System(s) - Weak to strong to OP. - 0 Confidence MC turns into a Cold and Calculating Anti-Hero. - Only One Love Interest - Climax which leaves more Questions than Answers (Will be Answered in upcoming stories set in the same verse) *** The end of Part 1 of Vol 1 (Ch-25) is where I'd say the real story starts. The end of Part 2 of Vol 1 is where the Protagonist would become cold and calculative. The starting chapters will feel very Tokyo Ghoulish, and trust me that's intentional as that heavily inspired me, but please don't drop this until you reach further ahead in the story. This story shapes up the world I'm trying to create, filled with different factions, goals, and the threads of fate guiding them. If you are giving this a chance then I'm very thankful. *** I'll be uploading 5 chapters every week!

It's a dark historical fictional romance, so be aware that this novel has lots of triggers. Such as cursing, life threats, deaths, torture, manipulation, psychological abuse, and mention of sexual activities. If you are underaged or sensitive to those, I suggest that you think carefully before getting into the story. The novel won't be so long compared to the others I'm still writing.
